Pat Palmer in "Gotcha," Race 99, the second of two racers he flew with that name. The original Gotcha was Race 9, which he sold to Marshall Wells, of Grant Pass, Oregon, and flew as "Cum 'N Thru."

A Boeing KC-97 languishes at dusk at Fox Field, near Lancaster, California. The tanker sits at Fox awaiting restoration, along with a Fairchild C-119, "Tanker 82," formerly of Aero Union, at Hemet, California, and one of the few surviving British-built Argosy freighters of the 1950s-60s.

I guess this is what you'd call a Curtis Wright Pee - 40 Warhawk.
